Ingredients

How to make it

Sift the flour, salt and baking powder together twice.

Cream butter and lard together, and add it to the dry ingredients, using the tips of your fingertips. Then add the liquid, mixing with a knife, until you have a very soft dough. Place on your mixing board. Pat out lightly until 3/4 of an inch thick. Cut out and bake in a hot oven for 15 minutes.

Oct 4/16 wow a great recipe. Instead of patting flat I shaped into 2 oz balls. Did not know what temp a hot oven is but set mine for 400 degress which is about 450 as my oven runs hot. Will be making again.

I cut this in half otherwise made exactly as written. They had a nice flavor and were very fluffy inside. They tasted good cold, which is unusual in a lot of biscuits. More in IMI 3/20/16Baking Powder Biscuits
